G                   C          G   
I heard her sing in tongues of silver
G           D                G
I heard her cry on a summer storm
             C               G
I loved her, but she did not know it
           D                  G    
So I don't think about her anymore
C                             G
Now she's gone, and I can't believe it
                  D        G
So I don't think about her anymore


G                      C     G
If three and four were seven only
                       D       G
Where would that leave one and two
                   C        G
If love can be and still be lonely
                      D      G
Where does that leave me and you?
C                              G
Time there was, and time there will be
                      D      G
Where does that leave me and you?


G          C        G
If I had a buckskin stallion
                      D    G
I'd tame him down and ride away
           C      G
If I had a flyin' schooner
                  D        G
I'd sail into the light of day
C                  G
If I had your love forever
              D        G
Sail into the light of day

G                C      G  
Pretty songs and pretty places
                 D     G   
Places that I've never seen
                 C      G
Pretty songs and pretty faces
                   D        G
Tell me what their laughter means
C                          G
Some look like they'll cry forever
                   D        G
Tell me what their laughter means

G          C        G
If I had a buckskin stallion
                      D    G 
I'd tame him down and ride away
           C      G  
If I had a golden galleon
                  D        G
I'd sail into the light of day
C                  G 
If I had your love forever
              D        G
Sail into the light of day
